He has led successful, award-winning events, experiences and integrated campaigns for a diverse portfolio of clients across many industry verticals.

Scott will join the executive team and oversee the Boston, Chicago, New York, Princeton and West Coast operations, working closely with managing directors in each of those markets to propel growth and collaboration. He will also report to McCall.
